"Villa Reverie is gorgeous. Aspect looking out across Lake Como is fabulous. Staff are excellent. Customer service exceptional. Would we go again - absolutely. Highly recommend.
Having emailed prior to our stay we were collected from the train station by the villa’s shuttle. 2 minute drive (if that). 6minute walk.
Welcome on arrival was great. Staff speak good English. Welcome glass of Prosecco (other drinks probably available - but they got us at “Prosecco”). Bags were deposited in our room while we sat and enjoyed the view from the very pretty terrace overlooking Lake Como.
The villa has a lift, but stairs between floors are short. There is excellent air conditioning - a bonus as in mid 30’s everyday we were there. There was a mini bar in our room. Some free bottled water each day. We also took up fresh milk every night for coffee in the morning. Breakfast was very good - Self service generous buffet.
Our recommendation would be a lakeside view with or without a balcony. We had a street side room, and the road does get a bit busy, but the room is quiet when windows are shut.
Bathroom was very well appointed, We weren’t so keen on the floor to ceiling clear glass wall between it and our bed. But it was a small matter overall.
Drinks are available all day downstairs. Coffees, teas, wines, beers and standard cocktails.
The villa offers a free shuttle to their sister restaurant in the hills above Varenna too.
Staff offer excellent recommendations."
